The Mirror of Nature: Guided Preparation for a Retreat in Nature, Day 2
Be still. Listen. What in your life is calling you?
Listen to the voices of the earth and sky, to hear what you are being asked to bring forth in your life at this time. When you come into a listening silence, all that dwells in Nature will hold a mirror for you, helping you move forward with clarity, purpose, and intention in the next phase of your life. Answers to your questions will emerge in bird song, dancing ferns, small tracks in the soft earth, and the stillness of stones.
Saturday morning beginning at dawn (7am), participants will each spend time alone in a natural area of her own choice, listening deeply to Self, Nature, and Spirit. We will come together again at the Well by mid-afternoon (3pm) to share the reflections and stories we have brought back from the land. The day will conclude with a celebratory meal together, ending by 8:00 p.m. (We will order out and share the costs of the meal.)
Pre-registration required. Maximum enrollment 10.
